फिर तीन स्पिनर्स के साथ उतरेगी भारतीय टीम: गिल या राहुल में से किसी एक को मौका; दूसरे टेस्ट के लिए पॉसिबल प्लेइंग-11

The second match of the three-Test series between India and New Zealand will start from tomorrow at the Maharashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Pune. India had to face defeat by 8 wickets in the first test.

In the second Test also, the composition of the Indian team may remain the same as it was in the first match, but this time some names may change. The team will then field with five batsmen, one wicketkeeper, three spinners and two fast bowlers. However, before finalizing the final 11, the team management will have to find answers to three questions.

first question- Will either Shubhman Gill or KL Rahul play? Gill could not play the first test due to injury. Now he is fit. Rahul was failing in the first test. second question- Will the third spinner along with Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja be Kuldeep Yadav or Axar Patel? Kuldeep could not do anything special in the first test. If the letters come then the batting will be strong. Third question- Will Siraj or Akashdeep be with Bumrah? Siraj is not in his old rhythm. Akashdeep is taking wickets with the new ball. Can also bat.

Sarfaraz has confirmed his place Gill was to play at number three in the Bengaluru Test but he got injured just before the match. Sarfaraz Khan got a chance in his place. Sarfaraz took full advantage of the opportunity and scored a century. It will be very difficult for the team management to keep him out now. In such a situation, if Gill has to be brought in the playing-11, then KL Rahul will have to sit out. Yashasvi Jaiswal, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Rishabh Pant cannot be dropped. In such a situation, it is KL Rahul’s turn to be out. If Rahul is given one more chance, Gill will remain on the bench this time too.

The team can go with 3 all-rounders to bring depth in batting.

India’s entire batting collapsed in the first innings of the first Test match. In the second innings, the top order and middle order played well but the lower order could not put up any fight. In the second innings, India had scored 408 runs for 3 wickets but lost the last 6 wickets to add 54 runs and the team was all out at 462. To avoid such a situation this time, the Indian team can give a chance to Akshar Patel in place of Kuldeep Yadav as the third spinner.

2 fast bowlers may get a chance Team India can again give a chance to two fast bowlers in the playing-11. Jasprit Bumrah is sure to play. Mohammad Siraj is getting challenge from Akash Deep for the second pace bowler. In the last match, Mohammed Siraj did not prove to be very effective even on a Pacers-friendly pitch.

Siraj has played 7 home Tests this year and has taken only 12 wickets at an average of 42.83. This is in stark contrast to Jasprit Bumrah who has taken 33 wickets in 7 matches.

Akash Deep has played 3 test matches for India so far, in which he has taken 8 wickets at an average of 23.12. Akash Deep’s batting is also stronger than Siraj.

5 players including Jurel, Kuldeep will not be part of playing-11 In the 16 member squad of Team India, 5 players will sit on the bench. Among them, wicketkeeper Dhruv Jurel, one of Rahul or Gill and Kuldeep Yadav, Mohammad Siraj and Washington Sundar are more likely to sit out.
